Reinforcement with Revit and SOFiSTiK:
This video series shows how to use Revit and the application RC (Reinforcement Concrete) to model reinforcement, create reinforcement drawings and generate reinforcement schedules.
We start with the reinforcement of a beam. Here we also look at the possibility of creating any arbitrary reinforcement shape using the Revit function ‚Sketch‘.
It continues with structural fabric sheets. First, we’ll reinforce a slab area. We then create custom fabric sheets and bent fabric sheets.
The next step is populating rebar areas. In this case we will create a set of rebars as an upper reinforcement in the slab.
Here we learn how to relate rebars of an area reinforcement to a sloping edge.
After that, we look at how to reinforce a slab edge with stirrups.
Next it is explained how a schedule is generated, followed by an explanation of how Revit and SOFiSTiK handle revisions.
Then, Part 9 deals with Rebar Templates. With version 2024, SOFiSTiK published Rebar Templates in July 2023 and I think you will be delighted, because you can use it to reinforce standard components very quickly and thus have hard work done automatically.
